All these ARs...It's like if every car maker made a Camaro and each claimed to be best.
The super expensive ones are like the Ferrari Camaro which are more or less just a normal camaro with a Ferrari badge and price tag.
I was really excited for these to come out a while back when they started teasing them (I'm a huge Griffin Armament fan). But then I started following "the_official_q" on Instagram and no I don't care about any other AR anymore.
